Significance
The move from paper to computer
databases was a huge leap in
information management and
storage.

Significance
Databases are much more efficient
than paper storage because:
they take up less space
easily accessed by multiple users
at once
can be transferred long distances
with virtually no delay

Significance
The

use of databases allowed for

the rise of corporate
infrastructure, credit card
processing, email and the
Internet.

Significance
Databases

allow for data to be

shared across the world instead
of being housed in one location
on a physical piece of paper.

Business Applications
Databases

are obviously used in

business applications and
financial transactions.
